Accompaniment by James Pitt-Payne:
Lyrics
- Sweetheart, since first that I met you
I fell in love at a glance
Your sweet smile haunts me all of the while
I hope I stand a chance
For there is nothing I won’t do
Now it’s up to you
Chorus
Show me the way to make you love me
Show me the way to win your heart
I’ve tried and tried but all in vain
And although you keep me guessin’
Still I’m confessin’, I’ll try again
Show me the way, please stop your teasin’
Dreams may come true some future day
I’ll even furnish a flat, a little dog and a cat
And I’ll go further than that
Show me the way
- Fate must have brought us together
Somehow, it just had to be
In my dreams you are with me it seems
You were meant just for me
Sweetheart, now I can hardly wait
Please don’t hesitate
